20090088195 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SIGNALING OF SCHEDULING INFORMATION - An approach is provided for signaling of scheduling information. A determination of one or more parameters for inclusion as scheduling information is made. A message containing the scheduling information in a header field is generated, wherein the one or more parameters include at least one of buffer status information, power headroom information, or a combination thereof. | 04-02-2009 |
20090100167 | Messaging - A device for transmitting a message for reception by another device, comprising: a processor for adding location information to the message, before transmission, wherein the location information identifies an area within which the message is to be hosted for reception by the other device; and a transmitter for transmitting the message, with the location information. | 04-16-2009 |
20100284348 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ALLOCATING RESOURCES USING NESTED BIT MAPPING - An approach is provided for generating a control signal for allocating one or more physical resource blocks to a terminal for communicating over a network. The control signal is separately coded and utilizes a nested bit mapping scheme to specify the allocation. | 11-11-2010 |
20100318869 | Method and Apparatus For Providing Error Detection In Coordination With A Radio Link Layer - An approach includes detecting failure of an error detection scheme relating to transmission of data units of a transport block. A negative acknowledgement message is generated in response to the detection of the failure. The negative acknowledgement message is forwarded to a radio link controller for discarding one or more of the data units. | 12-16-2010 |
20110047429 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING IMPLICIT NEGATIVE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT - An approach is provided for utilizing implicit negative acknowledgement. A determination is made that a user equipment is out of synchronization (e.g., with respect to the uplink). A control signal specifying timing alignment information is generated for transmission to the user equipment. An implicit negative acknowledgement corresponding to retransmission of data is declared if an acknowledgement is not received within a predetermined time interval. | 02-24-2011 |
20110069667 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING CONTROL CHANNELS FOR BROADCAST AND PAGING SERVICES - An approach is provided to support resource allocation of broadcast or paging control channels. It is determined whether resource is allocated for a logical control channel. One or more fields of a physical downlink control channel is defined to signal the resource allocation for the logical control channel. The physical downlink control channel has a first format to support transmission of data over a downlink channel, and a second format that includes the one or more fields to support allocation of the logical control channel. | 03-24-2011 |
20130294256 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING ERROR DETECTION IN COORDINATION WITH A RADIO LINK LAYER - An approach includes detecting failure of an error detection scheme relating to transmission of data units of a transport block. A negative acknowledgement message is generated in response to the detection of the failure. The negative acknowledgement message is forwarded to a radio link controller for discarding one or more of the data units. | 11-07-2013 |

20090103484 | Designing Power Sequences - The invention relates to the design of power sequences for use in a group of sub-areas of a wireless communication system. Each power sequence defines for one of the sub-areas transmission power values for transmissions using a respective one of a plurality of medium access units. For each of the sub-areas of the group, reception quality values are determined for transmissions between an access station serving the sub-area and mobile stations located at an edge of the sub-area. The reception quality values allow meeting system. The reception quality values are then converted for each of the sub-areas into transmission power values of a power sequence. | 04-23-2009 |
20090116415 | Relay, and relaying method - According to one aspect of the present invention, a relay station including a first antenna, a second antenna, a transmitter circuit that converts a baseband signal into an RF signal to be transmitted, a receiver circuit that extracts the baseband signal from the received RF signal, a switching unit that switches between a first state in which the first antenna is connected to the receiver circuit, and the second antenna is connected to the receiver circuit, and a second state in which the first antenna is connected to the receiver circuit, and the second antenna is connected to the transmitter circuit, and a communication controlling unit that extracts the baseband signal created from the RF signal received from either one of the first or second communication devices and then, after a predetermined process is applied to the communication data contained in the baseband signal, the communication controlling unit transmits the communication data through the transmitter circuit to another communication device is provided. | 05-07-2009 |
20100278111 | DUMMY PADDING SUB-HEADER IN MAC PROTOCOL DATA UNITS - An approach is provided for padding a protocol data unit. A protocol data unit is generated. A dummy padding sub-header is inserted within a header of the protocol data unit. | 11-04-2010 |
